I got a DFW line right after IOE.

Hire date in Jan, Checkride in mid March, finished IOE April 1, got assigned a line for consolidation in April. Got a line of 4 day trips in May.

My only gripe is that I'll miss my college graduation.

Well congratulations on all of those things! Got any advice for getting through training?

Clear your personal schedule, pay attention during ground school. Study with others, especially your sim partner BEFORE you get to the sim. The better you have your flows, profiles and callouts down, the easier it will be and the less sim time you will waste.

Sounds good, will do. By the way, were you in PHX for all of training? Or did they send you home before sim, or before IOE?

They don't send anyone home. I don't think the wait for SIM is that long. Going home is up to you just be smart.

Well that certainly backfired on them.

I went home for a long weekend between CPT and the sim since I had about a 10 day break. After the checkride, I went home until I got my IOE schedule.

Training isn't exactly easy, but as long as you put a decent amount of effort into studying, you'll be fine.
